Great video, about to replace my old super heavy solar panel with these ones. Great idea with the suction cups. I still have to come up with a solution to store them on the back of my truck

Thank you, I hang mine inside on the roof.

@@828findadventure that’s a great solution. But I don’t have a canapy.

Love your video for the storage suggestion! We tow a Safari Condo Alto with 200w already permanent on the roof, looking to add another 200w portable. The Renogy Flexible panels seem to have some decent "perform in shade" technology with diodes, so was interested in trying them out, but the size / storage was a bummer. The roof storage solution is brilliant. Was disappointed that you were pleased in the video with 40w performance while the panels were hanging vertical on the truck. Catch the right angle and show what those panels can really do! :-) Thanks again!

I'm from Brooklyn NY, I think if you leave all the expensive stuff mounted with suction cups and zip ties and walk away for a while or whatever. Your products will stand up to it's name and will really be jack-eried...

Never walk away from your stuff. LOL

Or just use small magnet mount hooks with a little felt under them

There all good, but if the panel sat out in the weather all year I assume it would get brittle. Thanks for watching.

My Jackery is first generation and they sent me some extra cords later. I think all come with the acceptable cords now. Thanks for watching.

I’m curious. Are these decently weatherproof? I’m wanting to make a low maintenance setup and just have it remain on the roof of my car to continuously give my Jackery power

@828findadventure Жыл бұрын

Yes they are water proof, but I would refer to Renergy’s website for mounting instructions or technical details. Thanks for asking.

@julialian2038 Жыл бұрын

Do you think it's safe to charge to my power station the whole day while I am work and connect to my refrige? I am going to mount this on the roof of my car.

@828findadventure Жыл бұрын

I haven't tried that but I would refer to this KZfaq channel. This guy is an expert and goes over everything solar. "DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse" Thanks for commenting.

@MANZANOADRIAN Ай бұрын

what adapter

@828findadventure Ай бұрын

If you’re talking about the Jackery it came with a bag of adapters and later that year they sent me another one. This is a first generation Jackery 1000.
